      What about the word 'Scouser'?

        I feel that since rappers can get away with saying the n-word by changing the end spelling to g-g-a, it should be socially acceptable to spell the c-word with a k, therefore no longer making it the c-word.

            Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

            No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

                I'm moving to Scunthorpe just to annoy swearing filters.
                I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]

                  it was also the 'normal' word used as the collective term for 'the handicapped', hence the organisations that existed at the time having the word 'spastic' in their names.
